SAP S/4HANA Error 306: Invalid SQL Cursor Operation
Description
This error indicates an attempt to use an SQL cursor that is not in a valid state. This can occur when an application tries to fetch data from a closed cursor, an unopened cursor, or one that has become invalid due to session termination or resource issues. It typically points to a programmatic issue within a custom report, interface, or database procedure interacting with SAP S/4HANA's underlying database.
Error Message
ERR_SQL_INV_CURSOR
Known Causes
4 known causesCursor Closed Prematurely
The application or program attempted to fetch data from an SQL cursor that had already been explicitly or implicitly closed.
Unopened Cursor Usage
An operation was attempted on an SQL cursor that was declared but never properly opened, making it unavailable for data retrieval.
Database Session Interruption
The underlying database session or connection associated with the cursor was terminated unexpectedly, invalidating all open cursors.
Database Resource Exhaustion
The database system ran out of resources (e.g., memory, open cursors limit) while processing the request, leading to cursor invalidation.
